Future plans allegedly leaked by hacker groupBandai Namco has reportedly been the victim of a ransomware attack by a notorious hacking group. It is suspected that the developer/publisher behind brands such as Tekken, Elden Ring, Dragon Ball FighterZ, and Soulcalibur has had data pertaining to its future releases, DLC and reveals leaked online in the wake of the attack.
While some of the aforementioned information has surfaced online this morning, the full extent of the data obtained by the hackers is unknown, and could contain the personal details of company employees, source code for the company's releases, and potentially data pertaining to the users of Bandai Namco releases.
This attack is the latest in a series of massive data thefts that, in recent years, have previously ransacked the digital vaults of video game companies such as Capcom, EA, and, perhaps most famously, CD Projekt RED, the latter of which lead to the release of the entire source code of smash hit Cyberpunk 2077.
Bandai Namco is yet to offer a statement on the supposed ransomware attack.
